Learn to love yourself. When i detatched from this game i was forced to learn this. How can you love anything else in the world if you dont love yourself OP? Religions will only put your mind in a box and have you looking outside your self for power, making you feel loved, but weaker in truth. The purity of the christian/catholic religions are good qualities to adapt in ones personality yes, but praying will have you outside of yourself waiting for things to happen. Come back to self, love yourself, and you will see how your world then unfolds for you. This inside creates the outside world, try it what do you have to lose?

I cant love myself as long as satan is part of the game. God And satan is playing a game within US. Until I have banned satan from myself, I would never love myself.

Let me tell you, I recently moved in with two friends, things were alright for about 5 days, then came the weekend. I went out with some friends for a game of pool and had a few drinks, I don't tolerate alcohol too well, so I left a bit earlier to go sleep it off.

So later the evening they're back, two friends of mine, and they brought a girl along. I got up and talked with them for a while and went back to bed. I wake up a while later to find all three of them in my room, one guy naked and the other two in a state of undress, pretty pissed off, I kicked them out.

Turns out they had an orgy in the living room. I was shocked, and I moved out that very day.

It was here that I realised that I can't do the things they do, I can't manipulate people like that, to satisfy my desires. Some might call me weak, but I don't care, I don't want to be like that. I sometimes feel like getting away from society and everything.

This is creepy. These were some of my thoughts this morning. I was contemplating joining the crowd. I have lived a good and decent life. I accept responsibility for my actions and expect no one to take care of me or mine. I kept thinking, why? Why live a decent life? Why struggle to be a good person?

Please Friend, don't even think you are good. The evil Has US. WE just have to figure out how to get out of here.

WE are all fouled. I and mean that in a big way.

No, I believe I am good because I feel guilt and have a conscious. I feel shame and remorse. I believe that Evil is tempting us more now then ever, it is our duty to resist evil. It sounds like you want to run away from evil.

I AM christan, I just don't practice it a lot. You think that would help? :)

Christianity involves worshipping Jesus right?

Jesus was a wonderful profit of light, and the Son of God.

But we are all the Son of God.

Worshipping Jesus is just as bad as worshipping any other man, for we shall not worship false idols. We must not worship any men! for they are fallible. And Jesus, while the Son of God (like the rest of us) was still a man (like the rest of us).

God is in everything, and saying God is an entity other than yourself is blasphemy.

Maybe you need to search for your inner light, instead of trying to find the light elsewhere.

Good luck in your life. You are loved.

I don't think Jesus wants to be worshiped. That is a tradition of men. I think he wants to be loved - I believe it is written "I will draw you with cords of love."

Yes. You have to give your life over to God completely, not just when you are in trouble or feel like it. It's super hard to do, esp. when you are a control freak and it will take practice. It's something you have to work at everyday. Find a church that is true to the Word and you are comfortable at. Speak to the pastor and join a Bible study group. Find some podcasts that help strengthen your faith. I love my local Calvary church, and Father Greg Laurie's podcasts are really great (A New Beginning).

Remember to rejoice in the Lord everyday, give thanks for your blessings, and know that he is in control of everything, including the state of the world today. Ask for his guidance in these tough times.

Lastly, we are all sinners so don't beat yourself up. Do your best every day to be the person God wants you to be and remember that you are forgiven. When you screw up, sincerely pray and ask for forgiveness. You will feel the weight lift.

Because the alternative is unsafe for women and children. Being civilized requires work. Some of it inner work.

lol, from a logical kind of view I´d say, it´s too late man...There´s a certain point in time when shit is gonne be so much, you gonna drown in it, now matter how hard you´re finally willing to look at it.

And the people that have been doing this all the time, they have the toughest time. I don´t even feel sorry for the rest anymore... let the universe take care of them, I can´t help.

I´m with you. WE can sort this shit out, but it aint gonna be easy.

Many of US will disappear in this quest. Some to the good (God) side and some to the evil.

Satan will give you "material" wealth if you do his bidding but it is lmited to your short lifespan here... God will give you eternal wealth that will last forever when you leave this place... real wealth in this world is showing people how much you love them

I must say there's a very heavy feeling around today.Last week I was starting to feel close to some kind of beautiful bright new beginning, but today...the weather, the middle east, lady gaga, Fema camps, evil, corruption, dishonesty, the rich getting richer while the poor people starve, and temptation everywhere, all I can see today is a horrible broken world. Maybe it's the dark before the dawn.

we have 70-80 years tops.

it's not eternity so we gotta hang in there. that's the ultimate test.

It seems like there are more evil in the world than good. I don't have a religion, but I try to be a good man. This led to that i´m lonely, have no money, no car, no girl, no nothing.

a couple of years ago I did the opposite and than I had everything?

What is the point in trying to be be a good man, when the others take it all if you try?

Quoting: Mr. Andersson

What is good without a belief system as a guide.

Are you good according to gengis kahn?Are you good according to international communism?Are you good according to nihilism?Are you good according to recreational cannibalism?Are you good according to national socialism?

Atheist only have themselves and their desires as a guideline, so it tends to be pretty flexible.

The only philosophy with christian principles is christianity.Your problem is wanting to be 'a good man' without any definable external standards meaning you have only what you need from moment to moment as your standards.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1310640

How about:

Are you good according to humanity? Are you good according to your neighbor?Are you good according to the entire planet of life?

Man knows good and knows evil.

Christian, Muslim, Athiest all all others are individual humans. We know what is damaging and helpful to other humans because we are the same as them. To know what you dont want to happen to you, and then commit it to some one else, DOES NOT require religious belief.

Lets go back to Christian philosophy though.

How dare any of you judge anything beyond yourself. This is the original sin. Jesus died for our sin of preconcieved judgment, and everyone of our egos is guilty. To not learn and to continue to judge, this is the path to your damnation.

Learn to love yourself. When i detatched from this game i was forced to learn this. How can you love anything else in the world if you dont love yourself OP?
